You are to load a cargo of Cyclohexanol to tanks 2, 3 and 4 centre and 2 and 4 wing tanks. The lines to these tanks are all connected at the manifold with flexible hoses and are all capable of being isolated with the exception of 2 centre, which has therefore been designated as the last tank to load. What will you do with the other tanks as they complete loading?
Close only the tank loading valves, so that pressure remains constant around the pipeline system and flexible hoses. Continue to monitor the cargo levels in the finished tanks to ensure that the high-level alarms are not activated as the ship's trim changes.
Close only the corresponding manifold cross-over valves as the tanks finish, so that the pressure in the lines equalises with the pressures in the tanks. Re-check the ullages at the end of loading as they will have changed as the trim of the ship has changed.
Close the tank loading valves, then close the appropriate manifold cross-over valves. After a few minutes, re-open the tank loading valves and leave them like this until cargo operations are completed, to ensure they drain fully. Re-check the ullages at the end of loading and then close the tank loading valves.
Close the appropriate manifold cross-over valves and tank loading valves as each tank finishes. Continue to monitor the cargo levels in the finished tanks to ensure that the valves are not passing.

Ask the surveyor to wait in the tank alone while you take the funnel up to the accommodation and rinse it in clean, fresh water.
Immediately instruct the surveyor to leave the tank and collect a substitute set of equipment.

The overspeed shutdown is to be tested on a high speed four stroke diesel engine driving through a pneumatic clutch. The overspeed protection is provided by a solenoid operated dump valve in the governor servo system activated by an electrical signal from a small synchro motor. What is the preferred method of testing such a shutdown?
With the engine on a high or full load suddenly disengage the clutch.
Reduce the set point so the shutdown operates at normal engine speed.
With the engine off load manually increase the governor speed setting until the shutdown operates, reduce the shutdown set point if necessary.
Use a crowbar to lever the governor linkage to full fuel with the clutch disengaged and engine off load.
Large slow speed diesel engines are usually of the crosshead type and have various arrangements to deliver lubricating oil directly to the crosshead bearings and guides to ensure adequate lubrication. Why are the crosshead bearings considered differently to the other bearing in this type of engine in respect of lubrication requirements?
The lubricating oil has further to travel to the crosshead bearing and so a separate arrangement is necessary
The crosshead bearing is more heavily loaded than other bearings in the engine so requires more oil to keep it cool.
The crosshead bearing is closer to the engine cylinder and therefore runs hotter.
The running surfaces oscillate relative to each other during operation rather than rotate and therefore full film hydrodynamic lubrication is not possible.
LNG carriers often operate between two fixed ports. Why is there likely to be a significant difference in the amount of LNG onboard arriving at the discharge port compared to the amount onboard departing the loading port?
Part of the cargo is used as ship's fuel in the form of boil off gas.
Inefficient reliquefaction plant operation means only some of the vapours are recovered.
Normal leakage through the cargo containment system leads to loss of cargo.
The vapours are constantly vented to atmosphere.
The majority of large slow speed diesel engines used for main propulsion purposes are direct drive to a fixed pitch propeller? What is the main reason for this arrangement?
The amount of power that needs to be transmitted would overload a gearbox.
A fixed pitch propeller can operate with reasonable efficiency at the same sort of speed as the engine.
There is usually only one engine sin this arrangement and so clutches are not required.
Controllable pitch propellers cannot be used with large slow speed diesel engines which can be reversed.
One of the Main Engine cooling pumps is down for maintenance. The rest of the cooling pumps are operating near full capacity with minimum margins on the maximum temperature limit. What should be the correct action to take with regard to UMS operation?
Operate the engine room on manual mode until the maintenance is completed and the cooling pump is operational and switched to stand-by mode.
Arrange frequent checks of the condition during the night otherwise operate in normal UMS-mode
Arrange with a rating "on watch" in the engine room for the UMS period.
Hope that the alarm function and automatic temperature regulation will function correctly and switch to UMS-mode as normal
